Being 'mildly' EVIL !!

You remind me of someone today ;)  !!

The last time someone scolded me very badly for no apparent heinous crime on my part, I broke down. Badly enough. Rubbed my teary cheeks with my bare hands. Who carries a handkerchief ? Well, I don’t. Even if I have saturated nostrils ready to open-fire at the slightest inclination of my head during those ‘I-got-a-terrible-cold’ days(There's always a wash room for that). Someone who has noticed me rub-drying my face, might have thought I have indeed got one tight slap or something (no wonder, my face was red hot by then). But the ‘badly’ that I mentioned in the first line was n’t that high scale if one was to grade ‘bad-ness’. I later realized it was just a simple rebuke, which was let loose from the often-not-sober-tongue of the attacker. If only I realized it then. But there was something in her words that hurt me then. The brutality of the moment was too much to bear and I had to let the liquid overflow (er,liquid?? Back then, I would have strangulated anyone who used ‘liquid’ for my precious tears. It’s not just plain water, madam. I lost quite a few millimoles of electrolyes along with the H2O molecules. And yes, grief ! And somewhere in my heart, it ached a little. Not an angina, really.)

The only thing I do now when I pass by that lady(the one who's the villain of this post) sometimes is,smile a contemptuous smile and remind my friend what a vindictive little pest (I refrain from using the word ‘bitch’. Come on, she’s far better than that) she is. Probably that person does n’t even remember she spoke harshly to me once .In fact I’m not quite sure whether she lists those words as harsh. What if it's entangled in her gene to talk that way !

So the point is- there is this category of people who are just so abnormal that they are either so haughty not to realize that they have a million faults of their own or have this ‘I-need-to-spit-out-these-ridiculous-words-or-my-tongue-will-keep-fluttering-inside-my-mouth-for-the-rest-of-the-day’ attitude that you just need to ignore and keep your cool whenever you encounter them. 


Colliding head-on with them can land you in nothing but a time-sucking-pressure-raising encounter. It’s not worth kicking the hard rock you stumbled upon while walking, it’ll only  damage your sole ( worry about your sandals, dear !!). Better catwalk around it and leave it to get shoveled by the ‘drive slow..men-at-work’ the next day.

The perfect precise look you should wear when you deal with an  incorrigible someone ;) 

P.S: The incident occurred when I was in my 3^rd semester. Back then, I was a naive thing who was yet to realize there were many who belong to her clan and each day receive silent sarcastic looks from people they once victimized and are oblivious about. And she was just a post-graduate then, who was probably asked by her senior to teach us a few clinical methods. Gosh, I thought she was some great doctor-in-demand or something. I wonder how her patients tolerate that frustrated ‘I-will-eat-you-raw’ look on her face! If only she gets a lot of patients seeking her help! I mean, what if you appear more sick than your patient? Isn’t a calm, smiling and reassuring face is what a suffering cachexic,wriggling in pain patient looking forward to in his doctor?

P.P.S: Calvin, how come I fail to stifle a giggle at your perpetration, every single time? This is the cartoon strip that brought back that regurgitating memory and made me write this post. Demoralize,eh. If only I could mete out the same treatment to 'that someone'. Since when have  I started to sound so EVIL !??! ;)
